Dear John
Here's your weekly update from Church Action on Poverty. As usual, we have
stories of how people are staying connected during lockdown and resources to
help you do the same.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GATHER WITH US: TUESDAY 16 JUNE, 2PM
Join our 60-minute virtual gathering at 2pm on Tuesday 9 June. We use Zoom - you
can connect using a computer or smartphone, or you can dial 0131 460 1196 on a normal phone and use the meeting ID: 193 697 232 .
This week (9 June), we looked beyond the UK and talked about how we can stand in
solidarity with people around the world, and what we can learn from approaches
to tackling poverty in other countries.
